I
am a British-trained professional homeopath who has been in practice since
1983 and writing and teaching about homeopathy since 1988.
I have a special love of homeopathy, having used it my whole life. I
came to classical homeopathy when my son was a year old and suffering
from whooping cough. Thankfully, after several false (homeopathic) starts,
we found a classical homeopath who was able to cure Daniel by not simply
focusing on his physical symptoms alone. As a result, Daniel's general
health improved and despite the seriousness of his complaint, he didn't
suffer any long term effects or vulnerabilities.
I
am a prolific writer with a reputation for being able to discuss both
complex and sensitive issues in an approachable, interesting and informative
style. I have published three books, am a regular contributor to both
professional homeopathic journals and popular publications dealing with
complementary health matters and homeopathy!
I have been teaching and talking about homeopathy to the lay public and
interested health care professionals since 1988, including groups of midwives,
nurses, counselors and doctors.
I have a background in acupuncture, iridology, healing, supervision
and humanistic psychotherapy. I developed a program of supervision specifically
to meet the emotional and more practical needs of the professional homeopath.
This has been incorporated into the curriculum of several homeopathic
teaching establishments in the UK and has formed a cornerstone for my
homeopathy teaching.
On
the basis of my writing and teaching I am frequently invited to teach
at schools and present papers at conferences, both in the UK and the
USA. I am a provocative and entertaining speaker with a specialty on
ethics, practice management and practitioner development.
In 1994 I moved from the beautiful but cold, wet and windy Pennines
(in the North of England) to Santa Fe, New Mexico where I finished writing
my book on Stress
and Homeopathy ... in the sun!
I decided to stay in the US and in 1995 I moved to Seattle, Washington
where I taught homeopathy at Bastyr
Naturopathic University for 5 years and had a private practice.
From 2000 until 2002 I worked with Kent
Homeopathic Associates, creators of MacRepertory and
ReferenceWorks ... bringing my sales, marketing and teaching skills
to the world's premier homeopathic software company.
From 2002 until 2006 I was active in the Florida Health Freedom movement and, as well as teaching and presenting,
I consulted on and wrote for Homeopathy Today (the magazine
of the National Center for Homeopathy). At the end of 2007 I moved to Gainesville (Florida) where I am practicing and teaching. |
